RNZI DRM @ 17675 kHz, 11675 kHz 21 Jul 2012


Around 23:30 EDT (3:30 UTC) snippets of audio can be decoded, but this is the second night where conditions for 17675 kHz rapidly improve starting around midnight, and stay that way for about 45 minutes, which is about when RNZI DRM switches to 11675 kHz.


But this time around, the nearby interferer is present during the broadcast, and it caused co-channel interference. I think it's a neighbour's LCD or plasma television.

RNZI DRM on 11675 kHz was going pretty well, until BBC Arabic @ 11680 kHz from Woofferton showed up.



So I went to sleep. It was 1 am, anyway.

Oh, one last thing. If you went with the official (?) DRM broadcast schedule, you would have thought RNZI jumped to 13730 kHz beginning 04:59 UTC. This contradicts RNZI's own schedule.
